Description

When the DDL Type was set to SynapseTable:, in earlier versions, upon table activation or a schema change, CDM Utils would automatically drop the table and recreate it. In the current version, it appears to check if the table exists and only drop and create the table if it doesn't exist.

Because of this issue, if there is a table metadata change- the synapse table in the dedicated pool no longer reflects the most current table metadata.

The option is needed to Drop/Create automatically as per all prior versions.

Research direction

Locate the CDM Utils handling for the DDL Type SynapseTable and compare the current table-existence check with the behavior in earlier versions. Verify activation and schema changes in a dedicated pool, and consider the issue complete when table metadata is updated through the requested automatic drop-and-recreate behavior.
